Happiness secrets to be revealed in film

The University of San Diego’s School of Leadership and Education Sciences will host a screening of “Project Happiness” in connection with the Dalai Lama’s visit to San Diego for a “Compassion Without Borders” symposium.

A discussion lead by Project Happiness Communications Director Brian Rusch will follow the screening, which is scheduled for 4 p.m. April 10 in Warren Auditorium at Mother Rosalie Hill Hall on campus. The screening is free, but attendees are asked to RSVP to projecthappinessusd.eventbrite.com.

The film features three groups of high school students from three continents who set out to explore the nature of true, long-lasting happiness. The students interview influential figures such as George Lucas, Richard Gere and neuroscientist Richard Davidson. The students also traveled to India where they met the Dalai Lama.
